Dahn Yoga in practice The components of Dahn Yoga Meridian stretching Jung-Choong breathing DahnMudo Meditation This book is organized according to the four comprehensive stages that comprise the Dahn Yoga training method. The first component of Dahn Yoga training is Meridian Stretching. Used primarily as preparation for more intense training activities, it loosens up the upper body and strengthens the lower body. The second step is Jung-Choong Breathing, which combines sequential movements with focused breathing. This practice facilities energy accumulation and proper energy circulation. The third training category is DahnMudo, which combines Dahn principles and traditional Korean healing material arts to enhance mental and physical strength. Through the discipline required of this practice, personal character and integrity are also enhanced. The lat and fourth stage of Dahn Yoga involves meditative energy work. At this stage, practitioners learn to achieve great stillness of mind while increasing sensitivity to the movement and flow of Ki energy. This practice eventually progresses to vision meditation, which allows participants to re-create their lives as they most desire by infusing the mind with positive thoughts, feelings, and imagery. Any of these four steps can be an effective training method when done independently. However, the best results are achieved when all four steps are practiced daily as a one to one-and-a-half hour training session.
Author's Remark Since I created Dahnhak (the original name of Dahn Yoga) based on traditional Korean mind-body training methods, the basic philosophy and principles of Dahnhak have not changed, but the training methods have been continuously revised and improved. As humanity's understanding of the human body has increased, many people have tried to create an easier and more effective training system based on the teaching experiences of Dahn Yoga instructors and their students. This book is the result of those efforts. One of the most simple and effective concepts in Dahn Yoga is the idea of "breath." All living begins breathe. It is necessary for survival on this planet. However, it is taken for granted by most people. Few people pay attention to their breathing. But the quality of the breath has great implications for the health of our mind and body. Whether people pay attention to their breath or choose to ignore it, they will continue to inhale and exhale. Through the experiential understanding of the breath achieved in Dahn training, the connection between mind-body communication and the breath becomes more apparent. Breath also dramatically demonstrates the interconnectedness between people. The air and energy that one person breathes in is also the same air and energy other people have just breathed in and out. Awareness that everyone shares the same air cultivates the understanding that all living things are interconnected, not only through the breath but on many levels. Ultimately, this understanding helps develop more harmonious world. Imagine that a bell sits on the floor in front of you. No matter how great the bell is, if you don't ring it, there is no sound. The same is true with Dahn Yoga. Dahn Yoga is not a theory, but a practical way of life. Include Dahn Yoga as part of your daily practice and stick with it so you can experience its full benefit. I sincerely hope that this book will help you take your first steps toward a healthier, happier, and more peaceful life. |
